Le Zoulou Blanc! I bet that was quite a show. I´m impressed that you were listening to township music back then; I knew nothing about world music until Paul Simon showed me the way with Graceland, in 1986.
Anyway,thanks for responding, Gavin; I´m pleased to hear that we feel the same about those English-language lyrics, that mar some otherwise great music.

Crazed: I think I enjoyed your clips in the order that you posted them. I loved Tin Star, but then my interest began to wane...
Don´t know much about female country singers myself, unless this lady counts:-



(P.S. After listening to Laura Cantrell and Brandy Clark, I realise that Maria Muldaur is a bit of a heretic; she´s singing about an oasis rather than the kitchen, which seems to be obligatory with these country divas.)
